Profile:
The ill treatment meted out to Nayan Mongia by the tour management on
the recent tour of Australia has made him a sort of martyr. But then
the ebullient wicketkeeper has never been short of supporters
anyway. Always cheerful, always smiling, Mongia's approach to the game
has been refreshingly different. Friendly, modest and unassuming by
nature, he has always been one of the easily approachable
cricketers. But once the action starts, Mongia has always been dead
serious about the game. A professional approach marks his batting and
wicketkeeping. And by any yardstick the recent treatment meted out to
him was unfair and unwarranted.
Mongia has been internationally known for a decade now. On his first
tour of England in 1990 he impressed no less a personality than Alan
Knott, who judged him to be a natural. After a fairly long spell as
understudy to Kiran More, Mongia made it to the Indian team in the mid
90s and from then on has been India's No 1 stumper, events of the last
few notwithstanding. An efficent wicketkeeper, Mongia is equally at
home keeping to Srinath or Kumble. He has displayed lightning quick
reflexes while diving to complete a catch or while bringing off a
smart stumping. As a batsman, Mongia has proved time and again his
immense value to the side in the middle order. But he has had success
while opening the innings too, a fact symbolised by his gallant 152
against Australia at New Delhi in 1996.(Partab Ramchand)
